Question by Genevie: What is the difference between an automatic draft (for online bill payments) and ACH payments?
I have recently set up a very basic savings account at my mothers credit union and yesterday when I called the credit union to ask if I could set up online payments to come out of this account, the teller told me that this account only accepts ACH payments. What does that mean?

Answer by Go with the flow
She might have meant ACH deposits only.
Like direct deposit from your employer.
All savings accounts I know do not allow debits to pay your bills.
For this, you would need a checking account.
*That’s the difference between a savings account and a checking.
If you could pay bills with a savings account, then there would be no difference between the two accounts.
They would both be called checking accounts.

Question by Adam: ACH Payments?
Hello,
I am building a website that allows tenants to pay rent online to landlords. I am operating as a portal I do not want to hold on to any money but want to apply a small fixed fee to each transaction. I am trying to build it right inside of the site. If anyone could point me in the right direction. I found Dwolla but they want each person to leave the website. I am not interested in these pre existing rent sites that charge a high rate.
Thank you
Adam

A very bad idea! You should find a merchant processing portal that passes back payment confirmation to your website. Charging tenants a fee is most likely illegal. Why would anyone use your portal?

Answer by SumDude
ACH = Automated Clearing House, where banks trade checks and settle up the debts and transfers of their customers. Used to be with the real paper checks people wrote, but now more electronic. The credit card company just makes an electronic image of your check*, and your bank (through the ACH) gives the money (as an electronic credit) to the cc company, and deducts the balance from your checking account; and your bill to the cc company is settled (paid).
* or totally electronic debits and credits if you pay on line.
